#### Add Angles from Grid

(This item pertains to the Add Angles dialog box. You can open this dialog box with the Add Angles button on the Probe Utilities dialog box, accessible through Insert | Hardware Definition | Probe.)

The From Grid option lets you view and add angles from the angle grid. The angle grid displays all of the available A-angle positions down the side of the dialog box. It displays the B-angle positions along the top of the dialog box.

Add Angles dialog box - From Grid

To add a new angle from the grid, perform the following steps:

1. Position your mouse pointer over the grid. The A Angle and B Angle boxes display the angle dynamically as you move your mouse pointer on the grid to determine the angle.

2. Find the row of the A angle you want to add. Then find the column with the appropriate B angle.

3. Click the box in the grid where the desired A and B angles intersect. The selected box turns red, and PC-DMIS inserts the selected AB angle positions into the New Angles List box.

To clear a selected AB angle position, click one of the red boxes again. PC-DMIS then removes the AB angle positions associated with that box from the New Angles List box.
